when he reverses the numbers, he also reverses the unselected text.

You did not have to do this if you would have done Peter’s step 2.

However, when he reverses the numbers, he also reverses the unselected text.
I had to build the numbers in an empty area and then copy everything where I had the text to avoid the problem

Problem solved, thanks your help was invaluable

but I would have to move each number manually…it’s a tedious job

1. Column Editor to generate 0 to 512 by steps of 4
2. Select those 129 lines (you can skip the select if those are the only 129 lines in the file)
3. Edit > Line Operations > Sort Lines As Integers Descending

How is that “mov[ing] each number manually”? It’s literally using the sort feature in notepad++ to order the 129 integers automatically with a single menu action.

@Alus

I suppose you could generate them as positive numbers and then sort then as numbers in descending fashion?

It could be done, but I would have to move each number manually…it’s a tedious job…I was hoping to do it automatically
